Zhou Yanjing smiled, held her hand, lowered his head and gently kissed her fingertips, "You are stupid, you know I have been waiting for you, but you still hide from me."
Shen Liwu's heart seemed to be wrapped in something soft, warm, but also with a hint of pain. She pursed her lips, undeniably.
"Then I will love you more in the future, love you with all my strength, be good to you, and make up for what I lacked in the past." Including what she lost in her previous life, she made up for it in this life.
A gleam of light flashed in the depths of Zhou Yanjing's eyes, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, as if he had heard the most touching love words.
His fingers gently pinched her palm and whispered, "You said this, don't go back on your word."
Shen Liwu raised her head and looked at him firmly, the stubbornness in her eyes gradually replaced by tenderness.
"I will never regret it, not in this life."
There were a few roosters crowing outside the window, accompanied by the sound of spatulas colliding on the stove, and the busyness in the kitchen seemed particularly warm. Zhou Yanjing let go of her hand, walked to the window, pushed it open, and a breeze carrying the aroma of vegetables and soil blew in his face.
"Do you want to go out?" He turned his head and looked at her gently.
Shen Liwu nodded, walked beside him, and looked past the window to the fruit trees and green vegetable fields in the yard. The sunlight shines on the leaves, giving them a golden glow and making them look vibrant.
"good."
The two walked out of the room side by side, passed through the main hall, and came to the yard. Zhou Li was squatting next to a big pot. Steam was coming out of the pot. The billowing white mist, carrying the rich aroma of chicken soup, drifted in the air. Zhou's father was sitting on a low stool nearby, holding a knife in his hand, chopping a piece of pork skillfully. The sound of the blade hitting the chopping board was crisp and rhythmic.
"Mom, do you need help?" Shen Liwu took a few steps closer and asked softly.
Zhou Li looked up at her, the wrinkles on his face becoming more obvious because of his smile, "No, no, you young people go ahead and have fun, I'll call you when the meal is ready."
Shen Liwu wanted to say something else, but Zhou Yanjing gently pulled her hand.
"Come on, don't disturb mom and dad while they're cooking." He whispered in her ear with a hint of doting in his tone.
She nodded and let him lead her to the backyard. There are several orange trees planted in the backyard, with a few ripe oranges hanging on the branches, and the green leaves sparkling in the sun. Under the tree was a piece of freshly turned land, exuding the unique fresh scent of soil.
"The oranges here are especially sweet when ripe. You will definitely like them." Zhou Yanjing stopped, looked up at the oranges on the tree, with a hint of nostalgia in his eyes.
Shen Liwu also looked up, the sunlight shone through the gaps between the leaves onto her face, making her feel warm.
"When they are ripe, we will come back and pick them."
Zhou Yanjing turned his head and looked at her cheeks that were slightly shining in the sunlight, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised. "Okay, let's pick them together later."
The two of them walked slowly along the ridge of the field. The ground under their feet was soft, and they sank deeper with every step. In the distance, smoke began to rise from other houses in the village, and the smoke curled up in the air and merged with the blue sky.
“The scenery here is beautiful.” Shen Liwu took a deep breath and felt that his entire lungs were filled with fresh air.
